The ModEurop creative team led by Martin Wuttke and Uta Riechers-Wuttke welcomed almost 50 participants to this meeting. In addition to well-known representatives from industry and trade, numerous international guests from a wide range of industries attended the ModEurop Colour Club Conference. These included last and sole manufacturers, start-ups from the 3D printing scene as well as tanneries, designers and AMD students.
Colours, sound and visions. The focus of the meeting, which took place for the second time in the inspiring ambience of the AMD, Akademie Mode und Design, Berlin, was on the choice of colours and the creation of the leather colour card for the Spring/Summer 2020 season.

More peace, more chic, more class.“Crafted Sensation” is an ode to nature. Here, calm, natural colours meet crisp highlights and thus provide unique, progressive combination possibilities. Tactile emotions and movement are the focus of the materials, including many braids, patchwork and fringes. Sensuality paired with minimalism and empathy are united in the theme “Cool Temptation”. Cool, light tones and polarising neutral colours, including the highlight colour “Mint”, give rise to ultra-modern, minimalist statements. Poetry meets coolness. New 3D structures bring movement to the surfaces. Gloss is set. Urban summer feeling, wanderlust and festival atmosphere characterise the third theme “Upbeat Emotion”. Tradition is rethought here. Vibrating contrasts are created by intensive colours mixed with sun-bleached pastel shades. The theme offers a lot of potential for new materials: tattoo leather, mesh, rubber, batik, scuba, knit… The attraction lies in the mix. Plastic and leather become equal partners.
